Below are instructions on how to login without a password, and a
point in the direction on how to change it, but I keep getting:
psql: FATAL: User "me" does not exist.

After some tries I got pass the database does not exist ;-)

Is there a user that is allways there, or can I see a list somewhere
?
The "postmaster" is mentioned, so I have tried that "root" and
"Postmaster", no luck...

TIA
